The Midnight Spy

by Iffet S. aged 12

The stars gleamed in the midnight sky
As the spy
Went to go investigate
The case of the missing skate.

Jumping from rooftop to rooftop,
Soon coming to a drop,
She saw a cop.

Running very fast,
As she jumped onto the mast
Of the glimmering ship,
She started to slip.

As she fell into the ocean
She saw a potion.
She had a drink
And a think

Looking around her,
There in a blur,
Was the missing skate.
But wait!

The for the case was not closed,
In the skate enclosed,
Was a note,
She put it in her coat.

The midnight spy,
Was about to cry,
For that she must not lie,
Cause they thought that she was a guy.

    Oh my! Excellent. I’ve tidied it up a little, as a couple of lines didn’t make sense. Hope that’s okay.

      You wrote “se” on the second stanza third line, well it is supposed to be “she”.
